Licensed Electrician Needed – Bedroom Split System A/C Not Powering On

$100

Hampton Park, Victoria

22nd May 2026

Need a licensed electrician to diagnose and restore power to a Mitsubishi Electric wall-mounted split system (model MSZ-GE35VA2) in the master bedroom. The indoor unit stopped turning on completely (no lights, no response to remote) after previous electrical work was done at the property a few months ago. At that time an electrician connected a new hot water system and mentioned the meter/switchboard load would need an upgrade. After that job, the bedroom heater/aircon unit no longer works. What I need from you: • Inspect the switchboard/meter and confirm whether the bedroom split system circuit was disconnected, repurposed, or isolated. • Check the outdoor A/C isolator and confirm if the unit is actually getting power. • Restore power to the split system safely if it’s just a simple reconnection. • If it’s more than a quick reconnection (e.g. needs a new dedicated circuit run from the board), give me a written quote for that work and, if required, a quote for any board/meter upgrade. Important notes: • Property has existing solar, electric hot water, and existing split system in the master bedroom). • The A/C unit itself was working before this electrical work. We believe it’s just not getting power now. • I only want licensed electricians • I’ll be on-site to give access to the switchboard and the bedroom unit. Please include in your offer: • Call-out fee / first hour of diagnosis • Availability Photos of the switchboard, meter, and the A/C unit are attached.

Electrician required for Down light & power switch to be adjustment

$10

Endeavour Hills, Victoria

7th May 2026

10 x Down light installation for a double storey house, on the “1st floor”. 4 holes pre-drilled already, 6 x spot marked. Existing lights in the room with two switches, no manholes, have NO access from the roof. Beams on the way (needs to be drilled)“refer to the images” .

Great work and very easy to deal with. He showed up on time, communicated clearly throughout the job, and explained the extra work needed once the ceiling access turned out to be more complicated than expected. He still got everything completed properly and made sure the job was done safely and neatly. Really appreciate the effort, professionalism, and punctuality. Happy with the final result and would highly recommend Cameron.
